After two tires and multiple balancing it would vibrate

At the time of this post 7/1/25, I purchased both the front and rear tires for 2023 goldwing your. I went with the W GT because Michelin has made amazing touring tires for quite some time "commanders", everyone I know that has them loves them. I figured they would of made an amazing tire for this as well. I ordered had the tires installed by the dealer using balance beads. Immediately once I got on the highway the front tire had a major balance issue "I have used balanced beads for a few years and never had issues". I went back to the dealer and had them rebalance it with weights, there wasn't much of a gain. They wanted the bike so I left it, a few days later I get a call, they tell me the following: they switched the front tire with another W GT and it vibrated as well. They then used a whole other wheel and a W GT on it to rule out the wheel being bad and it still vibrated. They put another tire on and the vibration went away. 2 brand new tires and they did the same thing, I wouldn't purchase. Michelin didn't do their testing on these tires for sure. I would not purchase. Let them figure out the issue first.

2023’ Condor Update - FR Tire Warranty- Favorable Results

Daniel at Michelin gets an A for great PR and problem solving. After getting the new front Road W GT tire the problem was resolved. Hope these tires work out so far only have 300mi., but have Michelins on all my vehicles . Appreciate your professionalism! Condor 23’

Poor performance

Front tire won’t balance out did it twice cost me $280 in mounting and balancing First, $150 to mount and balance in CA where they were purchased and when I got home to AZ spend another $130 to rebalance. The motorcycle handlebars still vibrate the worst I’ve seen. This front tire is not designed properly for a 2023’ Honda Gold Wing Tour.

Slips and slides

Bought approx 2 weeks ago. Issue with front tire not able to balance. Replaced with another tire almost as bad. In hard braking and cornering the front tire will slide. In acceleration from a stop to a hard right rear tire will break traction and slide. This tire is not made for the new model Goldwing.
